The Kokoda Youth Program

First Aid Accident & Emergency are proud supporters of local programs on the Gold Coast, this year marks the 10th anniversary the we have supported the Kokoda Youth Program and the Kokoda Challenge.kokoda challenge

Scott Whimpey, FAAE director, 10 year Kokoda competitor and first aid adviser, visited the Kokoda Youth Program on the weekend to share knowledge on injury management, nutrition and vital tips on how to get through this grueling challenge.

Scott’s workshop was one of many on the day and aimed at teaching the youth program important skills for hiking for over 30 hrs on trail and steep terrain.

“We love the way it changes the young people  and puts life and challenges into perspective” Scott says.

FAAE also also sponsored the Kokoda Kids with vital first aid kits for their up coming 12 months in the program.

This is the only program of its type in Australia, teaching kids about our Kokoda spirit and our heritage from the Kokoda Track in PNG and the battles of WW2.
